2010 Family Photos - Outtakes!

It is always such a special treat to try to get pictures taken of all of us. I have been trying for WEEKS to get it done. Last weekend I let everyone know that it was MANDATORY! Here are the pics that DID NOT make it on to the Christmas Card.

DaddyO cut off his head and Daisy thought it would be a good time to see if she could get her foot in to her mouth!

Lily looks thrilled and none of the Plaid Clad Kids were cooperating. The boys knew that we couldn't see their faces at that exact moment!

More naughtiness from THE BOYS and I was having a hard time holding on to Daisy and not falling off the wall. My foot barely made it to the ground!

Daisy is the only one I bought a special outfit for and there is only one photo with a complete shot of her dress. Of course, no one else in the shot looked right!

We were able to get 2 decent shots before it got too dark. I will share as soon as I get my Christmas Cards in the mail!

Sometimes the outtakes are better than the "good" ones! Love it!

Brandi said...

HA! Your boys are so silly! ;) Even your outtakes are good, though. Love Miss Daisy's dress!

Sounds like yours was very simular to ours! Did you use the timer or was someone there to help capture the moment? We used the timer and by about the 20th time I looked like a hawt mess from running back and forth! ;-)

Outtakes are the best!!!! I love the boys faces! hahahahahahahaha!!! I can't wait to see the ones that made it on the card! Although the one of Daisy in motion would still totally work.... it shows her true 2 year old spunk! LOL

Christmas card photos are so hard! So much pressure!

Which is why everyone is gonna get the same Christmas photo card from us for the next four years.

Thank you very much :)

Well, even the outtakes are cute. My goodness! Lily is almost as tall as you. Tell her to stop growing! Daisy's dress is adorable.

haha...little ones always make family photos an experience! Cute! Thankfully, on our way from my dad's in Wisconsin back home to Georgia, we were able to pass through where are kids were all and take our "traditional" family photo for our Christmas cards....only took about 3 re-takes :o)

Blessings & Aloha!
Running late again on blog reading! Please stop by, if you can.

I can't believe that Lily is almost as tall as you! Mason is catching up to me fast.

I loved the outtakes. Can't wait to see the one you picked!

oh I love the outtakes. Your family is too cute. Can't wait to see the Christmas cards. I love seeing picture cards.

Been there, done that. As I like to say, it's hard to get everyone looking at the camera, smiling, and looking intelligent all at the same time. I'm jealous you're able to wear sandals. We're clumping around in snow boots.

Lexie Loo, Lily, Liam & Dylan Too said...

You have a beautiful family! Can't wait to see the pictures you chose!

Emmy said...

Yes, it is hard when you are the mom and the photographer. There is a reason it is just my kids on the Christmas card.

Wish I lived closer, I would totally take your picture.
